Why is global warming such a big issue. Was there cars when the last ice age melted?

Answer 1

No, but there weren't many humans left.

Answer 2

You might think that everything is the same when you wake up. The sun rises, you spend your time at work, you go home and then you sleep. You may not be aware of the things that is happening around you. People today are distracted. Some are uneducated and some people just doesnt really care.

Global Warming
No folks, its no science fiction. Its true that the earth is heating up. The ozone layer is being thinned while we drown the earth with lots of our byproduct greenhouse gases. Whats the affect of these greenhouse gases, You ask? Well, The sun heats the earth up, and in a normal condition the earth should release this heat back to space. But unfortunately the greenhouse gases locks the heat and prevents it from being released back to space resulting in a rapid temperature rise and climate change throughout the earth.

Dont lie to me.. You can feel it too, dont yah? Its a lot hotter now that the years before. Winter aint that long no more. Do you think that this is not a big of a deal? Guess what, the polar caps are melting. In a few decades, low-leveled countries will be unhabitable due to the melted polar ice that will flood the earth. Not a big of a deal? I dont think so.

We’re continually abusing the planet. We’re releasing the carbon fuels that took millions of years to form in a short period of time. We’re killing off our forests and eating away the limited resources that we have.

To cut the crap short. In a few decades.. The earth will heat up, a lot of animal species will be history, polar caps will melt, large amount of landmass will be lost due to flooding, rapid climate change, deadly storms, extinction of lots of marine species, and a lot more. We're baking ourselves..

Not a big deal? I dont think so. BUT dont worry.. Im sure that we’ll nuke the face of the earth before that happens.

Answer 3

It is such a big issue because the data reveals that there is a very strong possibility that human activity is what is triggering this cycle of global warming. It may not be, but the data does suggest that strongly despite what George W Bush thinks.

Answer 4

No, but that was part of a natural warming process that the earth goes through every so often. This is such a big issue because we believe that it isn't a natural process. Many people expect this to send everything off balance; the ocean levels will rise, many species will become extinct, and ocean currents are expected to change.

Answer 5

Is not about the last ice age melting and changing, this is different, with global warming the main problem is the water is a resource that is going to be very limited. Yes in the beggining with the polar melting there will be tsunamis and cathaclisms. But later most of the water will evaporate and because of contamination, the rain is going to be acid rain, wich will make all life to die faster, and processed food would probably be our only hope.

Now people are dying from cancer, animals are disappearing, mother nature is being really harsh, it is all part of this cylce given because of Global Warming.

Answer 6

I don't believe there is such a thing as global warming. The planet goes through its cycles.

Answer 7

Global warming and ice ages are two completely different and unrelated things. However cars are important as they, with aeroplanes, are major contributers to the accumulation of greenhouse gases in the sky. With The united states being the worst polluter.

Answer 8

you have defined Al Gore. Reject the capability guzzling mansion and preaching. The earth has classes of heat temperature and chilly over 1000's of years, so any organic phenomenon should not be preached against and a modest residing house would use much less capability.

Answer 9

It's no big deal. I'm looking forward for warmer winters and longer summers. I'll eat that up. So too all you paranoid clowns out there:TURN OFF YOUR COMPUTER! It's being powered by a coal burning plant. Lets all live like cavemen.

Answer 10

The icebergs are melting, the animals the hyb. have not place to go, it is getting hotter and hotter, we have strange weather like tsaunamis, earthquakes, volcanos, hurricanes, I think it's a big issue.

Answer 11

this is one reason why bush is a dumb ***..he refuses to believe global warming exists, even when some of his fellow republicans(Arnold) do.. but of course, anyone that sends their citizens to an unjustly war and puts the country into billions of dollars worth of debt, have to not feel bad because they are purchasing the oil, which is a major cause.
